which uses two 25 kHz simplex channels to provide full duplex voice and control channels,
compute the number of channels available per cell if a system uses
(a) four-cell reuse,
(b) seven-cell reuse, and
(c) 12-cell reuse.
If 1 MHz of the allocated spectrum is dedicated to control channels, determine an
equitable distribution of control channels and voice channels in each cell for each of the
three systems. 1
Total bandwidth = 33 MHz
Channel bandwidth = 25 kHz × 2 simplex channels = 50 kHz/duplex channel
Total available channels = 33,000/50 = 660 channels
(a) For N = 4,
total number of channels available per cell = 660/4 = 165 channels.
(b) For N = 7,
total number of channels available per cell = 660/7 = 94.29 ≈ 95 channels.
(c) For N = 12,
total number of channels available per cell = 660/12 = 55 channels. 2
A 1 MHz spectrum for control channels implies that there are
Control channels = 1 MHz / 50 KHz
= 1000/50
= 20 control channels out of the 660 channels available

Since this is greater than the minimum required S/I, N = 7 can be used. 6

Since this is less than the minimum required S/I, we need to use a larger N. 7
